I finished my Iris Socks!

I tried Navajo Plying first…but it wasn’t exactly a success:

What’s on the needles: My own design socks. After they are completed, […]

Dear MagKnitters

Just an update on what I have been knitting, and also what my 7 yr old has been knitting.
First, presenting her first pair of knitted socks (on dpn’s), here are Ky’s socks:
Aren’t they adorable?! She decided to give them to her little brother so he’d have some house socks. Isn’t that sweet?
These are the tank […]
Today I wanted to share some fun, informative blogs and books that will help you learn about this amazing craft.
I have only been learning on my drop spindle for about a month, but I’m hooked! I’m still not finished with the 4 oz. of roving I got here , but I can’t hardly wait to […]
Here’s My “Favorite” Sweater from Drops Designs # 52-11
The main two colors are superwash sport-weight wool in creme and a heathered rose, that actually has a bit of kelly green and some light grey running through it~very pretty! The band at the bottom is a nine-patch of red and white with teal and a heathered […]
